Luc Maisonobe commented on MATH-852:
------------------------------------
My bad, sorry.
I made a confusion with the checkstyle setting for Orekit, where we have the
following setting:
{code:xml}
<module name="Indentation">
<property name="basicOffset" value="4"/>
<property name="caseIndent" value="0"/>
</module>
{code}
We don't have this setting in [math].
> Improvements to the Developer's Guide
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: MATH-852
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-852
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Sébastien Brisard
> Labels: formatting, guidelines
>
> Recent discussions (see MATH-851, as well as these threads
> [1|http://markmail.org/thread/utxuipyolpnche5o],
> [2|http://markmail.org/thread/sma3nwa5j3hspvp5]) have shown that our actual
> requirements (especially regarding formatting) are higher than stated in the
> Developer's Guide. This leads to confusion among new contributors, as well as
> recent committers. It is therefore proposed to revise this guide, in order
> for it to reflect the actual expectations regarding submitted code.
> This guide should however not act as a deterrent for new contributors, so
> attention should be paid to "rules" we consider as essential vs. superfluous
> rules.
> Here is an extract of the developer's guide in its current state
> h3. Coding Style
> Commons Math follows [Code Conventions for the Java Programming
> Language|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/codeconv-138413.html]. As
> part of the maven build process, style checking is performed using the
> Checkstyle plugin, using the properties specified in checkstyle.xml.
> Committed code should generate no Checkstyle errors. One thing that
> Checkstyle will complain about is tabs included in the source code. Please
> make sure to set your IDE or editor to use spaces instead of tabs.
> Committers should make sure that svn properties are correctly set on files
> added to the repository. See the section on Committer Subversion Access on
> the Apache Source Code Repositories page.
> h3. Documentation
> * Committed code must include full javadoc.
> * All component contracts must be fully specified in the javadoc class,
> interface or method comments, including specification of acceptable ranges of
> values, exceptions or special return values.
> * External references or full statements of definitions for all mathematical
> terms used in component documentation must be provided.
> * Implementations should use standard algorithms and references or full
> descriptions of all algorithms should be provided.
> * Additions and enhancements should include updates to the User Guide.
